  • Combined Authorities and Metro Mayors
    Combined Authorities and Metro Mayors What is a combined authority (CA)? A combined authority (CA) is a legal body set up using national legislation that enables a group of two or more councils to collaborate and take collective decisions across council boundaries. It is far more robust than an informal partnership or even a joint committee. The creation of a CA means that member councils can be more ambitious in their joint working and can take advantage of powers and resources devolved to them from national government. While established by Parliament, CAs are locally owned and have to be initiated and supported by the councils involved. 54 (17%) Number of local authorities (excluding the 33 London boroughs) with full membership of a combined authority 22% Percentage of population of England outside London living in a mayoral combined authority area Brief background to devolution and the combined authorities The idea of devolution has excited the imaginations of the political class for a long time even if the public has been less enthusiastic. The turnout rates for the May 2017 Metro Mayor 1 elections attest to this. Devolution was given a big push under New Labour but John Prescott’s North East Devolution Referendum 2004 was decisively rejected by the people (78% of voters were against). The idea was nevertheless pursued by the Coalition. Heseltine’s No Stone Unturned: In pursuit of growth 2012 report made a reasonable case for the concentration of funding streams and for these to be placed under local political control for greater efficiency and flexibility and to maximise effect.

  • The Rt Hon Damian Hinds MP Department for Education Sanctuary Buildings 20 Great Smith Street London SW1P 3BT Tuesday 17 June 20
    The Rt Hon Damian Hinds MP Department for Education Sanctuary Buildings 20 Great Smith Street London SW1P 3BT Tuesday 17 June 2018 Dear Damian, It is my pleasure to enclose a copy of the West Midlands Combined Authority’s first Regional Skills Plan. This plan has been developed with a range of key stakeholders including Local Enterprise Partnerships, local businesses, local authorities and education and training providers. The West Midlands is experiencing significant economic growth with the fastest growth in jobs in the UK. However, against this landscape of opportunity, we face real challenges around educational attainment, employment rates and skill levels. Shortages of the right skills at the right levels are impacting on the productivity of local businesses with two thirds of the gap between the West Midlands and the national GVA figure being attributed to employment and skills issues. The development of the Regional Skills Plan has been built from the evidence base produced by the Combined Authority’s Productivity & Skills Commission, chaired by Dr Andy Palmer, CEO and President of Aston Martin Lagonda and further complemented by extensive engagement with key stakeholders, businesses and stakeholder groups. The Regional Skills Plan summarises the key priorities and vision for putting skills at the heart of our drive for improving productivity and securing inclusive growth, a vision that is shared jointly with businesses, local politicians, and the wider education system: Preparing our young people for future life and work Creating

    RNS Number: XXXXX (Optional) Legal & General Group Plc DD Month YYYY Bruntwood SciTech appointed as development partner for £210m Birmingham Health Innovation Campus The development of Birmingham Health Innovation Campus (formerly known as Birmingham Life Sciences Park) has taken a major step forward today, with the announcement of a new long-term partnership between the University of Birmingham and the UK’s leading property provider for the science and technology sector, Bruntwood SciTech, a 50:50 joint venture between Bruntwood and Legal & General. A £210m, 10-year masterplan will be developed for the Campus, which will provide up to 657,000 sq ft of state-of- the-art lab, office and incubation space acting as a catalyst for the growth of the Midlands’ life sciences sector. It is set to create up to 10,000 new jobs and contribute £400m GVA to the regional economy by 2030. The Campus was recently awarded Life Science Opportunity Zone status by the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) and has been awarded development funding from Birmingham City Council and the Greater Birmingham and Solihull Local Enterprise Partnership. It sits at the heart of an important cluster of health excellence led by Birmingham Health Partners (BHP), a strategic alliance between the University of Birmingham, University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust and Birmingham Women’s and Children’s NHS Foundation Trust. The first phase of the development includes a new 130,000 sq ft purpose-built, six-storey building which will be home to BHP’s Precision Health Technologies Accelerator (PHTA), providing incubation space, cleanrooms, prototyping and makerspace as well as the Birmingham Precision Medicine Centre and Healthcare Technologies Innovation Hub.

    Andy Street has just three years to unite the West Midlands under his mayoralty democraticaudit.com /2017/05/08/andy-street-has-just-three-years-to-unite-the-west-midlands-under-his- mayoralty/ By Democratic Audit UK 2017-5-8 Andy Street, the Mayor of the West Midlands, has three years to make a success of the newly-created job. At first, Catherine Staite says, his ability to bring together the various political and community players will be more important than his formal powers, which are not great. He also needs to ensure that Birmingham’s historical dominance and the investment flowing into the city does not leave the rest of the region feeling ignored and resentful. New Street … but Birmingham is only part of the picture. Photo: Lee Jordan via a CC-BY-SA 2.0 licence The introduction of six new directly elected, executive ‘metro’ Mayors on 4 May – in the West Midlands, Greater Manchester, Tees Valley, Liverpool Region, Cambridge and Peterborough and the West of England – will lead to radical change in the local political landscapes. The leadership challenges and opportunities lie in three broad areas: whether contested leadership environments can be mediated to avoid the risk of destructive turf wars the vital importance of collaborative leadership skills to unite and mobilise a wide range of stakeholders the need to understand and manage the often conflicting, mutual expectations of all the key players on the field, including central government. The Conservatives’ Andy Street won a very close-run race, with 238,628 votes against Labour’s Sion Simon’s 234,862.
